Deep endometriosis (DE) of  urinary tract presents 1-2% of women with endometriosis. Urinary bladder (in 85%) and ureters (in 10%) are affected the most frequently. Possible consequences can be very serious especially in ureter´s affection leading to hydronephrosis and finally to loss of organ.

Retrospective evaluation of prospective follow-up of patients underwent surgery for deep endometriosis affecting ureters and leading to hydronephrosis

We present  study group of 66 patients surgically treated for DE affecting ureter.  In 7 (8) patients both organs – ureter and bladder were affected.  In ureter´s affection advanced ureterolysis, ureter resection with anastomosis – ureterorraphy or ureterocystoneoanastomosis (UCNA) was performed.  In our study group is a large proportion of patients (n=8) underwent unilateral nephrectomy for complete loss of kidney fuction showing the problem of late diagnosis. In 10 cases bilateral affection has occurred. Three patients have arterial hypertension of renal etiology. Overall postoperative outcomes are favourable with recurrent surgery in three cases of patients with ureteral affection- once for hematuria 2 years after ureteral resection and anastomosis, once for restenosis after ureteral resection and anastomosis UCNA was performed, in third case 6years after resection and anastomosis ureterolysis was needed. In 8 cases arterial hypertension of renal etiology was diagnosed. In one case we observed  strongly reduced of renal parenchyma and kidney function 10 years after ureter resection with  ureterorrhaphy. Assymetry of the kidneys with only slightly reduced renal parenchyma on affected side has occurred in 7 cases in a long time period of follow-up.

Surgical outcomes of urinary tract endometriosis are generally satisfactory, but it should be early diagnosed before loss of the kidney function or cardiovascular complications development (arterial hypertension) in case of ureter´s affection. Adequate follow-up optimally by nephrologists skilled in doppler evaluation of renal function is important after surgery as well because of possible long-term impact of the disease on suffered kidney.
